AI brief

OpenAI told users it will begin training its models on data from Daybreak Blue cybersecurity sessions starting November 29, including data from users who had turned training off. After backlash, a follow-up email promised a separate opt-out.

Why it matters: The change overrides an existing training opt-out for a set of users and has revived concerns raised in an earlier dispute with mathematicians.
